I thought the footnote example was reasonable.
However, if bullets are only follow one direction, it can cause confusion.
(Might be unavoidable.)
For example, the footnote example confused me a bit because I wasnâ€™t sure if
the ending periods were bullets or not.
If the chosen direction is RTL, then it might be confusing to have LTR
items:
Item
1
Item
2
A long multiline item that wraps perhaps 3
And so this item and the next 4
items are now unclear.
I am trying to show that the 4 could be a bullet number or could be part of
the wrapped phrase â€œnext 4 itemsâ€
